Qingdao Yongcheng Tech's automatic threading production line is not a single machine, but a complete pipe processing solution that integrates automation, information technology, and robotics. Its core design philosophy is raw material in, finished product out,achieving unmanned and intelligent production from raw pipe to finished pipe segment.
Key Features
Seamlessly connects multiple processes-automatic loading, precise length measurement, CNC cutting, automatic transfer, threading/grooving, online inspection, automatic sorting, and palletizing-into one continuous flow line.
Uses a PLC or Industrial PC as the control core, equipped with a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Touchscreen.
Can store hundreds of processing programs for easy recall, allowing quick switching between different pipe diameters, lengths, and thread specifications.
Features ：Internet of Things (IoT) functionality for remote monitoring, data collection, and fault diagnosis.
Precise Positioning & Cutting: Servo motor drives ensure cutting length accuracy within ±0.5mm, guaranteeing the baseline for subsequent threading.
High-Standard Thread Quality:Utilizes high-rigidity, high-precision threading heads to produce threads that comply with GB/T 7306, NPT, BSPT standards etc, ensuring excellent sealing and reliable connections.
Online Vision Inspection (Optional):Can integrate vision systems to automatically detect the presence and quality of threads, distinguish between male and female ends, and prevent defective products from moving forward.
Employs 6-axis industrial robots to transfer pipes between workstations. This offers high flexibility for pipes of different lengths and specifications, replacing traditional manual handling and positioning with extreme efficiency.
Single-line production efficiency can reach over 60-120 pipe pieces per hour, which is 5-10 times the traditional method.
Features a modular design, allowing for customized addition or removal of functional modules (e.g., adding grooving, marking, automatic bundling) based on client needs.
Core Advantages
Maximum Cost Reduction & Efficiency Gain:
Extremely Low Labor Costs: One operator can manage multiple production lines, only responsible for loading and monitoring, drastically reducing dependence on skilled workers and labor costs.
Soaring Production Efficiency:Continuous, uninterrupted production with seamless process linking eliminates waiting time between steps.
Exceptional Quality Consistency
Eliminates Human Error:The entire process is program-controlled, ensuring every single pipe piece has the same accuracy and quality, solving the quality fluctuations inherent in traditional methods dependent on worker skill.
Significantly Higher Pass Rate:Automated inspection and precise processing increase the product qualification rate to over 99.5%, reducing rework and material waste.
Drives Industry Upgrade
The Cornerstone for "Prefabricated Construction":Perfectly aligns with the requirements of prefabricated construction for "standardized design, factory production, and assembled construction," providing the core equipment for the industrial manufacturing of fire protection pipelines.
Data-Driven Management:Production data (quantity, specifications, pass rate) is automatically recorded, facilitating production management and traceability, helping companies transition towards a digital factory.
Improves Working Environment & Safety
Liberates workers from heavy, noisy, and greasy manual labor, transforming their role into equipment supervisors and technical monitors, thereby enhancing occupational health and safety.

Summary
Qingdao Yongcheng Tech's automatic threading line versus a traditional threading machine is essentially the difference between an "Industrial Revolution" and a "Cottage Industry."
For traditional engineering teams focused on single projects or small-batch production, the traditional threading machine still has a market due to its flexibility and low initial cost.
However, for companies committed to developing prefabricated construction, operating fire pipe prefabrication factories, and pursuing scaled production and brand development, Yongcheng Tech's automatic production line is the inevitable strategic choice. It is not just a piece of equipment; it is a key asset for enterprises to enhance core competitiveness, achieve industrial upgrading, and reduce costs while improving quality and efficiency.
When promoting to international clients, emphasize its positioning as a "Turnkey Solution for Prefabrication" and highlight its significant advantages in quality, efficiency, and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
